STA_SLOW_THRESHOLD is used only in one function, so don't need to be
global define.

Patch also fixes problem of htmldocs build I encountered:

Error(.//net/mac80211/sta_info.h:416): cannot understand prototype: 'STA_SLOW_THRESHOLD 6000  '

Why not just change /** to /*? I think it's better to keep it there
even if it's not used, it's a more public thing than the code?

I thought local references are preferred over global. Fixing only
comment is fine for me, I'll post v2.
